Michael King to Throw at Least One More Simulated Game Before Returning
                
        
        San Diego Padres right-hander Michael  King (knee) will throw at least one more simulated game before being activated off the injured list, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports. King threw 44 pitches in a three-inning sim game on August 23. At this time, it's unclear how the Padres plan to approach the Kings' rehab and whether he needs to go on a minor-league rehab assignment before returning to the Padres' rotation. King has made just one big-league start since May 18, so it's likely that when he returns, he will be on a pitch count or a bit rusty. The start he made after his return from the shoulder injury, on August 9 against the Boston Red Sox, was the outing that caused the knee discomfort that landed him on the injured list shortly after. Fantasy managers should continue to stash King on their IL and hope for a return sometime next week to help them with their playoff run.
